A previous location area scheme was proposed for cellular network, in which the size of location area of a user is dynamically determined by is current mobility and call arrival rate as the burden of system reaches the minimum. This scheme, however, doesn't consider other individual's movement pattern respectively because of allocating location area with a system's fixed pattern. When mobile subscribers move fast, this scheme allocates especially so large location area to reduce the number of location registration that it makes much paging cost. In this paper, we suggest new dynamic location area management which allocates location area according to each subscriber's mobility regarding its current location as center point. This new scheme allocates fast subscriber larger location area, which resulted in reducing the number of location registration. And small area paging reduces paging cost.

Cell-phone becomes a necessary communication device in modern society. However, a paging signal by a sound transducer often acts as an unpleasant noise, thus necessitating a paging signal by a vibration motor. The conventional flat type vibration motor uses three-phase windings with three phase coils. In this article, a new design of a vibration motor using a V connection with two phase coils is presented, increasing mass productivity. For electromagnetic field analysis, due to the motor symmetry, two-dimensional modeling can be implemented for fast computation, and performance is predicted by the finite element method. The winding distribution angle turns out to be the most important design parameter for the elimination of dead points, and a new coil configuration is suggested which has no adverse effect on motor size and weight. Experimental tests of vibration confirm the validity of the proposed design.

본 논문은 ATM-Forum의 WATM 기반 제3세대 무선 멀티미디어 망 환경에서 하나의 M.E.SW(Mobility Enabled ATM Switch)가 단순화된 많은 AP들을 관리하는 방안에 대하여 고려하였다. 또한 WATM 망 환경에서 가변 그룹 크기와 동적인 그룹 페이징 순서 방법을 사용하는 효율적인 페이징 방안을 제안하였다. 그리고 제안한 방안과 기존의 방안에 대해 성능을 평가 및 분석하였다. 여기서는 blanket-polling, sequential-polling 그리고 고정크기 그룹화 방안과 같은 대부분의 기존 방안들을 제안한 가변적이면서 동적인 그룹화 방안과 비교 분석하였다. 분석결과 offered-load가 낮은 환경에서는 단순한 blanket-polling paging 방안이 약간 더 우수한 성능을 보였다. 그러나 트래픽 밀도가 높아지면서 제안한 방안이 기존의 방안들 보다 더 우수한 성능을 보였다. 성능개선은 주로 가변적인 그룹 크기와 MS(Mobile Station)기반 동적인 페이징 순서 방안에 기인한다. 또한 제안한 방안은 MS에 대한 아주 간단한 이력정보와 최종적으로 통신한 AP 정보만이 필요하다. 따라서 이 방안은 효율적으로 구현하는 것이 가능하다.

Objective of this paper is to develop the user mobility model(UMM) which is used for the performance analysis of location update and paging algorithm and at the same time, consider the user mobility pattern(UMP) in zone-based cellular networks. User mobility pattern shows correlation in space and time. UMM should consider these correlations of UMP. K-dimensional Markov chain is presented as a UMM considering them where the states of Markov chain are defined as the current location area(LA) and the consecutive LAs visited in the path. Also, a new two dimensional Markov chain composed of current LA and time interval is presented. Simulation results show that the appropriate size of K in the former UMM is two and the latter UMM reflects the characteristic of UMP well and so is a good model for the analytic method to solve the performance of location update and paging algorithm.

Due to the recent advances in non-volatile memory technologies such as PCM, a new memory hierarchy of computer systems is expected to appear. In this paper, we explore the performance of PCM-based swap systems and discuss how this system can be managed efficiently. Specifically, we introduce three management techniques. First, we show that the page fault handling time can be reduced by attaching PCM on DIMM slots, thereby eliminating the software stack overhead of block I/O and the context switch time. Second, we show that it is effective to reduce the page size and turn off the read-ahead option under the PCM swap system where the page fault handling time is sufficiently small. Third, we show that the performance is not degraded even with a small DRAM memory under a PCM swap device; this leads to the reduction of DRAM's energy consumption significantly compared to HDD-based swap systems. We expect that the result of this paper will lead to the transition of the legacy swap system structure of "large memory - slow swap" to a new paradigm of "small memory - fast swap."

In the mobile communication systems such as PCS(Personal Communication Service), several strategies have been proposed to optimize the signalling traffic load by using the characteristics of traffic and mobile patterns for effective mobility management. According to IS-41 standard, LA(Location Area) consists of static and arbitrarily-defined set of cells, which do not take into account mobility patterns of mobile stations. In this paper, we propose an improved location management mechanism which contains the neighbor cells of the LA selectively using the mobility history of a mobile station and accommodates the LA size adaptively according to the speed of the mobile station. Also, we use the paging priorities for cells in LA to improve the paging efficiency. We compare the performance of conventional mechanism with that of the proposed mechanism using numerical analysis. The analysis results show that the proposed location management mechanism is better than conventional mechanism significantly.

An efficient mobility management for mobile stations plays an important role in mobile communication network. This paper studios a zone-based registration (ZBR) that is implemented in most of mobile communication systems. We introduce the mobility management scheme that combines a zone-based registration and a selective paging (SP) and analyze its performance. We set up an analytical model based on 2-dimensional random walk mobility model and evaluate the performance of the proposed mobility management scheme using the model to determine the optimal size of location area which will result in the minimum signaling traffic on radio channels. Numerical results are provided to demonstrate the performance of the proposed mobility management scheme under various circumstances.

This paper introduces a dynamic location management with hierarchical location area, which helps in reducing location update(LU) and paging cost and hence total location management cost. Users are assigned to appropriate location area level utilizing the call-to-mobility ratio(CMR) value. CMR values are calculated each time a user enters a new cell by computing its mobility rate and incoming call rate, which are the two key factors for defining the size of the location area.

Registration is the process by which a base station gets the information of location and status about mobile stations. Registration will become an increasingly important issue in mobile cellular communications, especially in microcellular system with the increase of location updating traffic. Four typesof registration schemes, which are specified in US standard IS-95 and Korean standard TTA-KO-0062, power up registration scheme, power down registration scheme, distance based registration scheme and zone based registration scheme, will be mainly used in the future. In this paper, we derive the combined cost of signaling traffic of paging and registration for various parameters of mobile stations behavior(unencumbered call duration, power up and down rate, velocity, etc.) then we present numerical results for the perfroamnce of four registration schemes. The size of location area is provided for optimal operation.

Location management is very important issue in wireless communication system to trace mobile users' exact location. In this study, we propose a dynamic location area management scheme which determines the size of dynamic location area considering each user's characteristic. In determining the optimal location area size, we consider the measurement data as well as the historical data, which contains call arrival rate and average speed of each mobile user. In this mixture of data, the weight of historical data is derived by linear searching method which guarantees the minimal cost of location management. We also introduce the regularity index which can be calculated by using the autocorrelation of historical data itself. Statistical validation shows that the regularity index is the same as the weight of measurement data. As a result, the regularity index is utilized to incorporate the historical data into the measurement data. By applying the proposed scheme, the location management cost is shown to decrease. Numerical examples illustrate such an aspect of the proposed scheme.
